Arpeggios, Rhythms, and Scales

By Mike Laird

Yes, it provides arpeggios for all 7th chords with useful fingerings, and modal, blues and jazz scales, but jazz is also rhythm. Over 200 rhythm patterns develop technique to "think rhythm and play notes". 25 patterns are from Freddie Hubbard's improvised solo in Maiden Voyage. Other rhythms are provided for scale studies. In August, 2010, The American String Teacher magazine reviewed Arpeggios, Rhythms and Scales: " Wow . . . a unique and detailed boon for violinists who want to develop their instrumental and musical tools, ear and knowledge necessary to perform and improvise . . . a completely different perspective for navigating the fingerboard . . . information never seen before in a scale book . . . a required tool for the violinist who is serious about becoming a . . . performer."
